Narain gets on track and the engine blows in 1st practice. man nothing can go right for that team.

Looks like heavy rain this year during racing times like the past years. I expect Red Bull to dominate as usual but the Pirelli rain tires will be a big "?"

On board was showing Vettel and you could see his tire comming apart then, camera switchs to Petrov who's tire explodes big time and debris almost hits his head! really scary. He said it was suspension.

Need to do something about these tires. Everyone is having issues

D'Ambrosio with a tire faiure and crashs

You know you're doing your sport totally wrong when you need to manufacture deliberately shoddy tires to generate "excitement" (which is exactly what they did; Pirelli didn't screw up...they did exactly as they were told).

It's an inherently boring sport and you have to make some sizable changes if you want to make it worth watching.  Tires and wings and other gimmicks aren't going to get that done.

wow Qualifying was so exciting last night!!! It was so close for the pole and speeds they were laying down. It was 5am in the morning but I went crazy when Vettel got the pole right as the last driver!

I thought the Red Bulls were going to be  in a league of their own but McLaren brought thier stuff too. Can't wait for tonights race
